    <p>So I am surprised that doing a search on google and stackoverflow doesn't return more results.</p> <p>In OO programming (I'm using java), how do you correctly implement a one-to-many relationship?</p> <p>I have a class <code>Customer</code> and class <code>Job</code>. My application is for a fictious company that completes jobs for customers. My current implementation is so that the <code>Job</code> class doesn't have anything to do with the <code>Customer</code> class, there is no reference to it at all. The <code>Customer</code> class uses a collection and methods to hold, retrieve and modify information about the Jobs that have been assigned by and/or completed for a customer.</p> <p>The question is, what if I'd want to find out for which customer a particular <code>Job</code> has been done? I've only found this article that's relevant: <a href="http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/webservices/library/ws-tip-objrel3/index.html" rel="noreferrer">http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/webservices/library/ws-tip-objrel3/index.html</a>.</p> <p>According to the implementation of the author, I would let the <code>Job</code> constructor take a <code>Customer</code> parameter, and store it so I can retrieve it. However, I see no guarantee at all that this model can be <strong>consistent</strong>. There are no restirctions to set the related customer for a job as a customer that the job was not for, and add jobs to customers that were done for someone else. Any help on this would be appreciated.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
